Rain rain

We had planned to go out for dinner and shopping, but the gloomy cold rain at sunset put us both off and we stayed in. Watched Ken Burns' documentary on the Shakers, which I'm sure I'd seen before on PBS but Gary didn't remember it. Certainly a fascinating but melancholy story, and missing 25 more years of history since it was made in 1984 and featured interviews with three surviving Shaker women.

We decided that we want to see his Brooklyn Bridge documentary, and Lewis and Clark. Looking at those on Netflix I also added Thomas Jefferson and the one on the history of broadcast radio. Not for all at once though.

Weather sounds unpleasant for the entire weekend. I should stay in and weave, and maybe cook soup or something like that. We shall see. Gas prices are rising so fast that I'm inclined to drive nowhere that isn't essential. I'm worried about the effect on the prices of groceries though, not to mention hay if this continues.
